Nine Patch
Pictures by Rebecca Davis
Rebecca Davis's Nine Patch quilt, pieced about 1846, sets little squares of pink, blue, brown and gold between bands of deep red. The Nine Patch, three rows of three small squares, is one of the first blocks a quilter learns and one of the best loved. For a birthday, sent to someone who treasures things made by hand.
